Geography and Coffee

A new movie which looks like being useful for Geographers... Looks at the coffee business. Can you spot the inequalities coming up ??

OK, apart from that it's half term finally. What a half term it's been - hectic and hassled at times, but now there's time to pause - for 5 minutes anyway...Looking forward to heading up to Scotland again for the SAGT Conference.

For those of you who are interested in the issue of Fair trade, there is a powerful documentary out called “Black Gold,” that documents the lives of Ethiopian coffee farmers and clearly demonstrates why all of us should be asking for Fair Trade coffee. The film was recently released in the theater but is now available to the public on DVD via California Newsreel. You can read more about the documentary or pick up a copy of it here at http://newsreel.org/
